Is AI Already Biased? Who's Really Programming Your Future? | The Karel Cast Yesterday Is AI Already Biased? Who's Really Programming Your Future? | The Karel Cast Can artificial intelligence ever be truly neutral, or is it already reflecting the beliefs, priorities, and agendas of the people and governments building it? AI is growing at an astonishing pace, but someone is teaching it how to think. Tech companies, programmers, regulators, and now governments are all helping shape the future of artificial intelligence. As AI becomes more deeply connected to politics, business, and society, one question becomes impossible to ignore: Can we trust AI to be objective? Today, Karel explores how AI is trained, why bias may be unavoidable, and whether artificial intelligence is becoming the world's most powerful influence—or simply another reflection of human flaws.

AwesomeCast 787 gets practical, futuristic and increasingly strange as Sorg, Katie Dudas and Dave Podnar explore family-safe phones, connected health gadgets, USB-C mysteries, robotic limbs, Instagram's latest AI privacy controversy and Fortnite's revealing new take on the DC Universe. Sorg also begins downloading the iOS 27 public beta during the show, despite Katie's warnings and a few concerns being saved for the Patreon aftertalk. Stories and Gadgets Discussed A wireless microphone saves the podcast: When Dave's regular microphone setup breaks, he switches to a compact dual wireless microphone system that connects through USB-C. The plug-and-play backup works with phones and laptops without a complicated setup. Omron 7 Series Bluetooth blood pressure monitor: Dave reviews a new connected blood pressure monitor after getting inconsistent readings from an older device. He highlights its larger arm cuff, support for two users, storage for multiple readings, three-reading averages, Apple Health integration and the ability to export results for a doctor. https://amzn.to/4yncwxY Pinwheel phones, watches and home phones for kids: Katie introduces Pinwheel's managed technology ecosystem for children and teenagers. Parents and caregivers can control approved contacts, monitor texts, restrict social media, set bedtime schedules, review locations and gradually unlock features as a child gets older. The company also offers a standalone smartwatch and a Wi-Fi-powered corded home phone that brings back the satisfaction of dramatically hanging up. https://www.pinwheel.com Kennywood's reopening and the mystery bag gamble: Sorg recounts a delayed visit to Kennywood after a water-main break interrupted opening day. His $5 mystery merchandise bag produced a Kennywood gaiter, a vintage postcard and a Jack Rabbit 100th-anniversary pin. Awesome Person of the Week — Rory Cooper: For Disability Pride Month, Dave profiles inventor, engineer and Paralympic medalist Rory Cooper. After becoming paralyzed while serving in the military, Cooper designed a lighter wheelchair and built a career improving mobility technology. His Pittsburgh work includes the Human Engineering Research Laboratories, a collaboration involving the University of Pittsburgh and the Department of Veterans Affairs. https://www.invent.org/inductees/rory-cooper WhatCable diagnoses confusing USB-C connections: Sorg tests a free Mac utility that reveals what connected USB-C cables, chargers, docks and ports can actually do.

The hosts discuss predictable abuse, privacy risks and why technology companies need more diverse voices involved before launching features like this. Meta subsequently disabled the feature. https://www.usatoday.com/story/tech/2026/07/13/meta-disables-ai-feature-instagram-backlash/90899917007/ Jizai Arms bring Doctor Octopus technology closer to reality: A Japanese research project demonstrates wearable robotic arms that can be attached, removed and exchanged between users.

AI agents are designed to do more than answer questions. They are meant to complete tasks. Sierra co-founder Clay Bavor joins CNBC's Arjun Kharpal to discuss how AI agents are moving from demos into real business workflows, especially in customer service, sales and support. Bavor explains how Sierra builds and tests customer-facing AI agents before they go live, why companies want clearer ways to measure AI's return on investment and how outcome-based pricing could challenge the way software companies get paid. The conversation also covers coding agents, rising AI token costs and why the hardest part of enterprise AI may be the “last mile” of deployment.

You asked, we answered!

Doommaxxing: How Fear Became a Billion-Dollar Business AI is taking your job. The economy is collapsing. A new virus is around the corner. Democracy is ending. Or is it? In this episode of The Karel Cast, we examine the rise of “Doommaxxing”—the business model of keeping people scared, anxious, and constantly engaged. From social media algorithms to cable news, from political campaigns to tech billionaires, fear has become one of the most profitable commodities on Earth. Throughout history, powerful institutions have used fear to control attention. Today, smartphones and social media have made that process faster, more personal, and more profitable than ever before. Who benefits when we're constantly told disaster is just around the corner? Is AI really coming for everyone's job? Are we being manipulated into living in a permanent state of crisis? And what does all of this mean for our mental health, our politics, and our future? Plus: • Trump's latest claim about algae in the Reflecting Pool and why experts disagree. • The FCC's unprecedented challenge to Disney/ABC station licenses, including KGO-TV San Francisco. • Why media freedom advocates are sounding the alarm. Fear keeps us scrolling. Fear keeps us clicking. Fear keeps us watching. But who profits? The Karel Cast is supported by viewers like you. Please like, subscribe, and share.

Qualcomm CEO Cristiano Amon says artificial intelligence is set to change the way people use smartphones, even if the devices themselves are not going away.Speaking to CNBC's Arjun Kharpal on “The Tech Download,” Amon said phones will increasingly be operated by AI agents that can carry out tasks on behalf of users, from managing apps to interacting with services across the internet. He described agents as a major shift for the mobile industry, comparing their emergence to the rise of apps in the smartphone era.Amon also said new categories of personal AI devices are beginning to take shape, including smart glasses, pins, pendants and other wearables. He said glasses are a natural fit for AI because they sit close to a user's eyes, ears and mouth, allowing models to process what people see and hear in real time.The Qualcomm chief also discussed what the shift means for the semiconductor industry, including the need for more powerful and efficient chips in phones, PCs, glasses, cars and other connected devices. He said AI is forcing a rethink of chip architecture as devices increasingly rely on a mix of CPUs, GPUs and neural processing units to run models across both the device and the cloud.Amon also pointed to memory shortages and wider supply-chain constraints as key challenges for the industry, while arguing that the rise of AI devices could bring new players into consumer electronics.Subscribe to “The Tech Download” wherever you get your podcasts.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

The News Is Broken—And It's Breaking Your Brain BREAKING NEWS!” Every alert is urgent. Every headline is a crisis. Every story is supposedly the end of the world. But what if the real problem isn't the news… it's the way the news is built? Today on The Karel Show, we dive into the nonstop outrage machine that modern media has become. Fear, anger, panic, urgency—it's all engineered to keep you watching, clicking, doom-scrolling and emotionally exhausted. Are we finally tuning out because the news itself is broken? We'll look at today's biggest headlines and ask: * Which stories truly matter? * Which are manufactured outrage? * And how much of “breaking news” is actually broken journalism? Also: Primm, Nevada—the once-iconic stop between Las Vegas and California—is becoming a modern ghost town. So what killed it? Bad planning? Changing travel habits? Corporate greed? We'll break down the slow collapse of a desert landmark. And the Pope issues a massive warning about Artificial Intelligence in a 43,000-word address—and the tech world immediately shrugs it off. Is the Vatican overreacting… or seeing something Silicon Valley refuses to admit? The Karel Show streams live Monday through Thursday at 10:30 AM PST.
